SHADOW MIRROR

Shadow Mirror
Psychic arms in the darkness reaching out
Seeking connection (intersection) with someone else
Finding a host, a worthy victim, I fear it’s me
Because I am changing, becoming twisted, am I insane?
My life’s in ruins so suddenly
I’m missing pieces of my days
I see my reflection, a stranger instead
His eyes are mine, and fills me with dread
I’m having visions of a man on his knees
Fear in his eyes, I’m twisting a blade
And when I awaken, a sick feeling descends
My clothes are bloody, and my hands

BURNING THE MAJOR ARCANA

Burning the Major Arcana
Born with these gifts that I can’t explain
Powers of healing, take pain away
I create light with the palms of my hands
Powers of foresight, I scry in the sands
Why is there fear in your eyes?
Because of my powers, you wish me to die
I feel your hate, vicious spite
Tie me to the stake, I’m ready to die
I have been raped by your fear
Tied to the stake, as you light the flame
Quickly engulfed there is no escape
All turn to ash my fear and my pain
And from these ashes I’ll raise again
I have been raped by your fear
Raising from the ash
I will get my revenge
In a chilling display
You will all burn

SCREAMING MARTYRS
08:23

Screaming Martyrs
In the face of death they cling to their faith
Their lips, mouthing their sacred prayers
In between shallow, fluttering breaths
Tears cascade down their cheeks like a flood
I can hear their screaming
Waves of tortured anguish,
Violently tearing their way into my ears.
It’s been ten years since that day, (and still)
I’m waking every night
Drenched in sweat
Cold to the bone
My mouth dry as the desert was on that day
Screams along the roadside
Their mouths, their eyes, open wide
Their need for sacrifice
To see them hung in crucified delight
These weren’t scream of fear, no
Their cries were victorious
Full of sadness, wrought with pity
As though, we needed the forgiveness
As though, we needed the saving
From one god…what God?
Blood where they were crucified
Ashes where they burned alive
The screaming martyrs were sacrificed

CRYSTALS AND CHALICES
10:04
|

Crystals & Chalices
Whispers, like butterfly wings
Pulsating gracefully
In a vain attempt to rise above it all
Spoken so softly—barely audible
About your new gods
Betrayed
Guilty of sin, and there’s no regret
Crystals and chalices tore your soul apart
The day that you left, and gave up on us
Destroyed every part of me
Crystals and chalices ripped my soul apart
Did you hear me cry out?
“Mother, please don’t leave”
You walked away
And through alchemical lines
Drawn on a mirror
Reflecting on those you left behind
Staring into gorgon like eyes
Never to realize
How much we were traumatized.
You were our guide, and now we are lost.
